True WOmanly Courage.

Mrs. NJ. B. Babcock came to Brook.
field the last part of May, selected hel
claim and went back to Iowa after her
family of little girls. She returned
here about the first of July with her
family and established her home on her
claim. Her house was small struct-
ure 12xl9 without being plastered.
The almanac, not the weather: suggest
ed to her that winter was coming on,
and she and her girls went out to the
claim and concerted inside her house 4
feet high all around mixed the gypsum
and sand, carried it in and filled in be-
tween the studding, with their hands,
and then lathed the whole house them
selves, and are now running off lime
and mixing mortar to plaster the entire
house. And yet you will occasionally
find a mana full growing man--who
will set down and whine because he has
not the: means to make his claim house
for home. There are
some noble women in this country

The Wealth of the United King
dom Compared With That
of the United States.

The latest estimate of the wealth of
the United Kingdom is s43, 600, 900,
900, which is an average of about
sl245 for each man, woman and child
In that country. In aggregate wealth
the United States is now far IN advance
OF any other nation in the world, al
though In its per capita possessions it
is still behind Great Britain and Ire
land. The relative gain of the two ma
tons in the past ten years, however,
makes it probable that even in wealth
per inhabitant the United States will
lead the world in fifteen or twenty
years hence. OF course, property is
much more widely distributed in the
United States than in Great Britain,
and the average holdings of what are
technically called the middle and lower
classes are far greater here than there.

THE TIMES.
Bill Nye on the Cowboy.

Boys who sigh to lash madly acros
the plains or follow the cowpath t.
fame do not know of the dangers an,
desolation such life involves. Their
are two classes of cowboys in the west
VIZ, the working cowboy and the lay
figure cowboy. The latter remains il
town and rolls cigaretts, which he smok
es fercely through his nose. He talk:
learnedly of cattle brands, corrals
round-ups, ''cavyards, ranges, bands.
punches and herds, but doesn really
know a range COW from Texas steer
The genuine cowboy is not always
beautiful but he is conversant with his
business, knows every band in his dis.
trict at least and who owns it; brave
where bravery is most needed, that is,
in the discharge ofhis duty. To stano
watch all night in blizzard and hold a
band of restless, believing cattle from
stampedlng, to ride all the next day
half asleep in his saddle, to fall occas-
ionally from his pony when the latter
makes mistake and steps in a prairie
dog village, or to have collar bone
broken when fifty miles from a physi,
elan, are some of the features of cow
boy life which the boys who run away
from school do not consider.
Moreover, it would be well if every
boy in America or elsewhere would
write in his hat with blue pencil that
there is no rose bordered road to success.
and that even the man who is born beau
tiful and marries rich has to fight his
way. The great west does not so sore
ly need pretty men with buckskln cloth
es as it does good citizens who are will
ing to work. Wherever the sun shin
es or grass grows and water runs, the
young who will give good days work
for a fair day wages will surely be
promoted as he deserves it. 1t may
not be funny, but it Is the never-dyine
truth that industry, integrity and per-
severance are mighty good substitutes
for symmetry, genius and hair

Wannamaker'S Way to Wealth.

John Wannamaker, the great Phila,
delphia merchant, recently spoke as fol-
lows about advertising:
my plan for fifteen years has been
to buy so much space in a newspaper
and fill itup with what l wanted. l
would not give an advertisement in a
newspaper Of 400 circulation for 5000
dodgers or posters. If l wanted to
sell cheap jewelry or run a lottery
scheme | might use posters, but 1
would not insult decent reading pub
lie with hand bills. The class of PEG.
pie who read such things are poor ma
terial to look to for support in mercan-
tile affairs. l deal directly with the
publisher. l say to him: How long
will you let me run two columns of mat
ter through your paper for 500 or $50
as the case may be? let him do the
figuring, and if think he is not trying
to take more than his share l give him
the copy. l lay aside the profit of a
particular line of goods for advertising
purposes. The first year l laid aside
$1,000; last year | laid sside $40, 900.
| have done better than this, and shall
increase that sum as the profits war
rant 1t. | owe my success to newspa-
pers, and to them shall freely give
certain profit of my yearly business. .

Clippings From our Exchanges.

1t may be remembered by many
farmers that bill was introduced into
Congress last winter by the Hon. Hen
ry Hatch, of Hannibal, Mo. This bill
provided for an appropriation of SIS,
900 annually to each state and territory
for an agricultural experiment station.
The Illinois legislature has provided for
an acceptance Of SIS, 900 from the gen.
eral government to establish an expert
mental station at the State University
at Champaign.
The Kansas legislators want to watch
The people, interest in this state and
see that like acceptance is provided
for, as too much knowledge can not be

"A further analysis of the new

Mason and Dixon line, which is not
likely to be the case, the south will pre-

democratic members 80 are frou the

More About Seed Corn.

The suggestions we offered in yes
terday's Eagle concerning the selection
of SEED corn were intended manly fol-
the farmers who have hitherto acted up
on the advice of this paper, urged for
several years past in sending north for
supply of seed corn. 1t is hardly
necessary for us to state that those
farmers who have acted upon our sug-
gestions in this matter are the ones
who have harvested the largest crops
and of the best quality. The reason
for this, as we have explained time
and again, is that the seed brought
from latitude where the season is
shorter than here will produce a crop
in corresponding period here, the
crop maturing in time to escape the
effects Of the dry weather that usually
comes Oh the latter part Of July and
August and cuts short the late crops.
1t is not necessary for a farmer to
send north for seed every season since
the quality of early maturing will hold
good for several years, and when he is
provided with desirable variety and has
a care for the selection of the choicest
of the crop for seed, as suggested yes
terday. he may reasonably expect to
harvest good crop one year with an
other. Farmers OF neighborhood can
arrange among themselves to keep a
fresh supply of seed by alternating from
season to season, and thus at q trifing
expense get the full benefit Of the ex-
change. Wichita Eagle.
